In case of liquid, if Reynold's number ' Rn ' is 1450, then the flow of liquid will (a) be streamline. (b) be turbulent. (c) change from streamline to turbulent flow. (d) be sometimes turbulent and sometimes streamline.

Answer: (c). Reynolds number ranges: Rn 2000 turbulent. Rn = 1450 lies between 1000 and 2000, so the flow is in transition from streamline to turbulent. So the answer is (c).

In case of liquid, if Reynold's number ' $R_n$ ' is $1450$ , then the flow of liquid will

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

Reynolds number ranges: $R_n < 1000$ streamline, $1000 < R_n < 2000$ unsteady (changing), $R_n > 2000$ turbulent.
$R_n = 1450$ lies between $1000$ and $2000$ , so the flow is in transition from streamline to turbulent.
So the answer is (c).
